Abstract:

In order to explore the effects of different ripening agents on the yield and quality of sesame seeds, and to provide theoretical support for the mechanized sesame harvest, Shangzhi 196 was planted conventionally, and chemical ripening agents (ethephon, Lishougu+ethephon and 540 g/L thiazene+ethephon) were sprayed on sesame at the final flowering stage, and defoliation and dehydration of capsule layer, photosynthetic properties of capsule, photosynthetic efficiency, 1000-grain weight were investigated after three, six and nine days, respectively. The findings indicated that the water contents of the capsules, stems, and grains steadily reduced as the number of ripening days increased. The water content was much lower than that of CK, and the declining range grew as the concentration increased, defoliation and leaves fall rates were increasing and significantly higher than CK. Lishougu+ethephon treatment had the most notable impact on sesame dehydration and defoliation among the three ripening agents, followed by 540 g/L thiobenzene+ethephon treatment. After ripening agent treatment, the chlorophyll content of capsule decreased to different degrees. With the increase of ripening days, the chlorophyll destruction of capsule was serious under the treatment of Lishougu+ethephon. The actual photosynthetic rate of sesame decreased significantly compared with CK, and the potential activity of PSII (Fv/Fo) and photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) both decreased. With the increase of ripening days, the chlorophyll b content of 540 g/L thiabenzene+ethephon treatment increased first and then decreased. After accelerated ripening treatment, the 1000-grain weight, fat content and protein content of sesame decreased, and the effect was most significant under the treatment of Lishougu+ethephon, the effects of 540 g/L thiazene+ethephon treatment on sesame quality and yield were the least. Comprehensive analysis showed that the defoliation, dewatering and ripening effects of 540 g/L thiazene (SC) 45.0 g/ha+ethephon 2500 g/ha combination were significant, and had little effect on the photosynthetic efficiency of capsule in later period, and could obtain ideal ripening effects.
